This stunning video directed by Bertil Nilsson of the experimental acrobatic company, Barely Methodical Troupe was first released in 2014 and remains a queerguru firm favorite. It was filmed in the streets of London and is based on a live performance which won the Total Theatre Award at the Edinburgh Festival. Nilsson created Bromance using the body and its movement as his sole method of communicating with his subjects. He described it as The film explores the intimacy of physical interaction between guys. It’s based on them being friends, exploring the intimacy of physical interaction between guys; of their ‘bromance. The concept of the film was to set something unusual in the real world, almost a documentary in the most abstract of senses.’
The dancers featured are Beren D’Amico, Charlie Wheeller and Louis Gift.
